When placed into an .htaccess file or a
<Directory> or <Location> section,
this directive forces all matching files to be parsed through the
handler given by
handler-name. For example, if you had a directory you wanted
to be parsed entirely as imagemap rule files, regardless of
extension, you might put the following into an
.htaccess file in that directory:
SetHandler imap-file
Another example: if you wanted to have the server display a
status report whenever a URL of
http://servername/status was called, you might put the
following into access.conf:
<Location /status>
SetHandler server-status
</Location>
